The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act extended the U.S. Small Business Administration's (SBA) 7(a), 504 and Microloan Debt Relief program for non-disaster SBA Loans. Under this initiative, the SBA will pay the first six months of principal and interest (P&I) for small businesses who apply for and receive a new 7(a), 504 or Microloan between February 1 and September 30, 2021, capped at $9,000 per borrower per month.
 

Starting in February 2021 the SBA will also cover P&I for an additional three months for small business borrowers with qualifying loans approved by the SBA prior to the CARES Act. After this three-month period, the following borrowers will receive an additional five months of P&I payments also capped at $9,000 per borrower per month: Borrowers with SBA microloans or 7(a) Community Advantage loans; and those with any 7(a) or 504 loan in food service and accommodation, arts, entertainment and recreation, education, and laundry and personal care service sectors.
